(Y/N POV)

"Y/N! Wake up!" my mother hollered from downstairs. I rubbed my eyes and dragged myself out of bed, walked to my closet, and changed into a simple T-Shirt and shorts, then walked downstairs where my mom was cooking breakfast. I sat next to my brother, Gabe, and waited for breakfast to be ready.

"Good morning" my mother said sweetly.

"Morning." I replied lamely.

"So, I was wondering if you had any plans today?"

"Not that I know of, why?"

"Well, Gabe was hoping to go to the races tonight but I can't take him..."

"Seriously?" I groaned and looked at Gabe, he smiled big and started pleading for me to take him. Breakfast was set before us and I watched him shove food into his face while telling me about Lightning McQueen. "If you shut up I'll take you" I told him. His eyes lit up and he nodded excitedly before quickly finishing his breakfast.

"I have the tickets to the race, it starts at 7 but I'd get there earlier if I were you" my mother said smiling.

"Fine. Thanks for breakfast." I said as I hurried to my room to sulk.

"Come on Y/N! We have to get going!" Gabe yelled from outside of my room. I threw on a pair of jeans and a plain black hoodie, brushed my hair and teeth, grabbed my phone and purse and left my room.

"What are you wearing?!" Gabe scoffed.

"Clothes." I said back.

"Well good news for you, dad has a Lightning McQueen hoodie in his closet! You can wear that!" Gabe said before running off to retrieve it. I rolled my eyes and waited, he came back holding the sweater and tossed it to me, I sighed and put it on. Now that Gabe was satisfied with my outfit we could leave. I listened to him chatter about the race the whole way to the track. When we arrived we bought some snacks and sat in our seats, I was on my phone when I heard Gabe gasp.   

I looked over at him and saw he was staring at something, or rather someone, I looked over and a man in a full racing getup started walking out. He started walking towards us and we locked eyes, my heart started racing and my skin felt like it was on fire, he smiled cheekly and winked at me before walking towards a red racing car. "Thats him! Thats Lightning McQueen!" Gabe said excitedly. We quietly sat and watched the racer help prep his car and talk to his crew as more fans filed into the stadium. Soon the clock struck seven and the announcer started talking, the race was about to begin.
